Why is the Skald fantastic?

With ToB (which I have) ALL Bards can get the Enhanced Bard Song which makes the Bard song the same. Even the Blade can have the same song as the Skald. Plus with the Spins the Blade has better combat bonuses than the Skald.

The only thing that the Skald has better than the Blade would be Lore. But 1/2 the lore of a level 20 Blade can ID pretty much anything anyways. Lore in general is useless in ToB since you have Pocket Plane and can just cast Identify a million times if you want.

Hmmm...really wondering why Skald is so great apart from an rp'ing aspect which I would completely understand.
